Spring

The best part of my springbreak was traveling across the seven seas to Vancouver British Columbia. All of my relatives are atleast six years older then me. During the day i went skiing at whistler, waking up at 6:30am was challenging enough over the longest weekend but i was given the opportunity to drive up to whistler in a Tesla P85D. Coffee was no longer needed as going from 0-100km/h in 3.2 seconds spared my need for caffeine. The drive from West Vancover to Whistler takes about an two hours but we managed it in an hour and ten minuets. We arrived at creek side where we bought are back country access passes. It only allows us to use each chairlift once but it doesn't matter since we will be out of bounds for most of the day. After an hour of gonadal rides and lift lines we were standing at the entrance to the national park. This was no daily adventure, we were attempting to complete the spear head traverse in one day. A brutal 70km traverse that starts on whistler mountain, loops around fissile peak and then dumps you on blackcomb. Because we are on skis we can complete such a walk in about 12 hours but we must traverse glaciers which takes a significant amount of time to do so safely. 35km in and 7 hours later we had made it past the last glacier traverse and we were now starting to come around fissile summit from here is was mostly flat or downhill. Fissle mountain was incredible, it looked like a knife cutting into the ski. It was covered in glaciers and steep cliff faces with over hanging Serac's. Slowly but surely we made it to the top of backcomb blow. It was 5:00 pm and we had been gone for 13 hours. The sun was coming down just infront of us where is lit the infamous out of bounds run called the corona with a pink after glow. Although this was a real treat to ski through we were tired and ready to go home so we did not dwell for very long. This was easily the highlight of my spring break

Favroit thing this year

My favorite thing that we did in English this year was the projects on the Kings Speech and V for Vendetta. Both movies I used many times as sources or evidence for essay righting and I defiantly wouldn't have been able to get through the year without them. They were both exceptionally easy to right about and were very thought provoking making them entertaining movies that you actually want to watch. Mice and Men was also a fun book to read, it was incredibly frustrating watching how avoidable the situations that Lennie and George faced but it draws you in and is also a great source of evidence for essay righting. Another thing i enjoyed this year was root beer pong, it was defiantly for sure my first time playing the game beer pong but how it was Incorporated into are assignments was really funny and interesting. We should defiantly do the same next year.

My News Years Resolution

My New Years resolution is to not have a new years resolution. Why would I need a new years resolution? I don't mean to sound self centered but I am perfect and I don't need to change. January is the month that everybody tries as hard as they can to make a change in their life. Whether it is starting a diet or a weekly workout routine, it is the month when the gyms packed and fast food restaurants are in the red. However I don't need to start hitting up the gym because I have a naturally perfect physique. Oddly enough I am skinny and tall, my diet consists of trans fats and fun. No matter what I eat and how much of it I don't gain weight thus I don't need to hit that gym up because isn't the point of going to the gym is to lose weight? Yesterday I told someone about my Lack of New years resolution, they laughed and I didn't, He realized I wasn't joking and told me something that will stick with me for all of next week "Sir, your cup is full." I didn't really understand what he meant when he said this but it seems heavy and important so I thought I should include it. My genius has built quite a reputation, today I was asked if a set of all sets contain itself?  I confidently answered yes. I am don’t know why he asked me this but I think it had a strange consulted point. Anyways today My English teach told me that I couldn’t have less than 300 words on my assignment. This challenge of my superiority was not taken lightly thus I tried as hard as could to have less than 300 words and still pass.

favorite winter holiday memory?

Once every few years we drive up to Vancouver for one week to spend christmas with the entire family, a 14 hour trip in a small car for with 5 other people makes anyone question why they decided to vist there distant family but the second we step inside the familiar and beautiful home we are greeted with hugs and similes from familiar faceless and we instantly forget the horrors we encountered on the car ride up. My aunts are cooking in the kitchen and the smell of turkey and stuffing fills the air. According to are families tradition the youngest has to say grace something that i have fortunately avoided most of my life, Grace is something that takes place at everyones table but as soon as it starts we all just want it to end so that we can start eating. The room is filled with stuffed faces and laughter as stories are being told and food is being eaten. This meal makes the drive worth it and reminds us how much we love are relatives. the next day we get up extra early, as i eat my breakfast with tired eyes we prepare to go to whistler for the rest of the holiday to do one big family ski vacation. Well me and my brothers and relatives explore the huge mountain, my aunts and uncles explore the village. We meet up at the end of the day tired from skiing or shopping to head to the nearest restaurant that we think can handle all 15 of us. We don't go toVancouver to spend time with the rest of the family often but when we do it is always memorable and is always my favorite way to spend the christmas holidays because nothing is better then eating to much and spending time with your family and friends.

Anything i want

Opening day at lake Louise, Lake Louise opens very early in the season. They only have enough snow and time to open one run and one chairlift. The skill level is vast as there are people that have never skied before and people that ski everyday. The run is called the WeWaxy 500 it is a 10m wide blue run (about 15%) and there can be hundreds of people going anywhere from 10km/h to 60km/h on a narrow ice rusted run that serves down the mountain with little to know snow around. It gets pretty hectic and you half to be careful not to run over some kid because you weren't paying attention.
I was doing a drill with my group we undid all of are boots to help us learn have proper balance well skiing. this can make stopping particularly hard and staying in control even harder. As i was coming particularly fast out of a steep section my right ski hit a rock and ripped the boot from my foot, the clipped ski went flying down the runn leaving me with one ski and an exposed foot. The ski flew right into a ski patrol snow mobile before stopping. I skied down and just as i went to put my foot in the boot i saw a ski patrol running towards me frantically screaming. He ran up to me grabbed my ski and got on the snowmobile before i could say anything. He yelled back at me. "I hope you can ski on one foot" It took me an extra 5 minuets to get down. I met up with the ski patrol where he told me "Do yout bindings up before tossing me my ski."

Laughing at people for no reason to make them feel left out

Me and some friends were looking for a specific street downtown, we were somewhat disoriented on where to go so we begin to ask the people around us. After receiving advice instead of a clear answer on how to get where we need to go we thanked the man and moved on. Two minuets later we had another stranger at are disposal this time it was different, i don't know what came over me but i just started giggling. Soon i was laughing at a perfectly innocent man who was just trying to be polite and give us instructions on how to get to a certain street. My friends thought the whole prospect was funny and started to laugh with me. This poor man though he was being laughed at and tried to sneek away, this action caused a even greater uncontrolled reaction of diaphragms experiencing spasms because at this point we all though the whole situation was so funny we were learning on each other for support and frantically gasping for air. We ended up finding prospect street soon after that.  

Public Transit

The consistent chatter of the train gliding along the tracks is all that anyone hears, if your lucky sniffles beside you might cough into a particular crowed part of the car literally spreading his love with everyone else around him. Otherwise everyone is dead silent as people make their futile attempts to avoid eye contact and even worse a conversation a strange though dawned upon me. Calgary has the most spread out population in the world and in this magical privacy invading moment we have 200 Calgaryians the most private and spacious people in Canada are all jammed in a 3 by 20m train car. Something about this bothered me so after i told my rather brother we decided to try and brighten the mood in this moving coffin. The next day me and my brother got on the Tuscany train. We brought a stool and put it in the middle of the train. We just waited for the train to fill up, the as the heart worming feeling of some one breathing down your next began to consume us both we stood unto of the stools and asked for everyone's attention. The looks we got were so great it was almost as if the people were screaming "how dare you disturb my miserable life" We announced that whoever would hug the stranger next to them would get a free coffee at Starbucks. Of course this was a blatant lie we simply had just take about a 100 empty unremembered Starbucks cards that have no value and gave them to people. Looking back on the awkward silence of my previous ride i decided that no these people are all generally nice, they aren't talking because they think there better or other be nine reasons they aren't talking because many just don't want to break the ice.  The train instantly filled with laughter and applause. I think this experiment i did with my brother was one of the scariest things i have every done but also has left a big impression... Society doesn't suck after all.
